I was banded on April 4th, 2006. So far it is working good. I started 2 weeks before my scheduled date on a semi-liquid diet. Cutting out all carbs and only eating proteins when I got real hungury then a complete

liquid diet 5 days before the surgery. I have lost 35 lbs to date:clap2:

Have about 180 lbs to lose so it is a long road

Hi and welcome to LBt. You are doing really well so far. It is a long road but you will get there, we all will. Congrats on getting banded.

Wow! Congrats on your 35 lb pre-op weight loss and welcome to Bandland. How are you doing post-op? Who's your surgeon? Where are you from?

Welcome and good luck on your weight loss journey.
